premiere week round up

So, yay for premiere week and new television episodes to watch.

I don't watch Monday night television--I can't even tell you what is on Mondays, but Tuesday brought House M.D. and Law and Order: Special Victims Unit.

House: I started watching House over the summer on USA, I really don't know the whole show's continuity, but the show is intriguing. Plus, I have total a total hollywood crush on Robert Sean Leonard. [Seriously was so stoked when House came out because RSL was on it, but I think it conflicted with Gilmore Girls the first season or some other WB show, so I didn't watch it]. I don't know how I feel about the show--I enjoy the relationship between House & Wilson, but I'm totally grossed out by medical stuff. I'm really looking forward to Kal Penn being on the show, so I guess I'll have to wait for that.

SVU: SVU has been one of my favorite shows for a long time. Tuesday's episode was okay. Last season ended in a BIG way though, that I was disappointed in how the new season opened. Munch cracks me up. And I love Benson & Stabler, who was that new guy though? Oh my hot, when Stabler was flirting with whatever Cynthia Nixon's character name was, SWOON. I wasn't really all that impressed with Cynthia Nixon (then again, I rarely am), and the storyline wasn't very SVU-like. Hopefully, next week's will be better--wait, I just remembered the preview for next weeks and it really doesn't look all that great, at least next week actually involves sometime SVU related.

Wednesday night brought Gossip Girl and Dirty Sexy Money both which are oh so scandalous and exciting.

Gossip Girl: So it premiered last week, but seriously, oh. my. god. Gossip Girl is my new favorite show ever! I love it! It's so scandalous! And the boys are so pretty. Nate & Chuck are oh la la. Besides the aesthetics of the show, it's just drama-rama. I love the kids, I don't get the storyline between Serena's mom and Dan's dad. My favorite character is Chuck--what is up with his scarf, I mean, seriously. I think I like Chuck & Blair as instigators. I love the show, I watch it on The CW, and then watch it again under unsavory means... plus The CW is airing it again on Sundays at 8.

Dirty Sexy Money: I was on the fence about watching DSM until I read an article in the October issue of Vogue which just cemented my decision to check it out. I really liked Peter Krause in Sports Night (which I consistently tell people is my favorite show) and the few episodes of Six Feet Under I've watched, so he was really the selling point for the show, especially since I didn't know Samaire Armstrong (totally girlcrush worthy) was in it. This show is crazy! And oooh scandalous. And I love the contrast between Nick and the Darlings. My favorite Darling is Jeremy. IMDB has the show listed for only 6 episodes, I really hope ABC doesn't cancel the show because it is so good.

Thursday's only television viewing was The Office.

The Office: I only started watching The Office weekly mid-last season and only because of Ed Helms (he was seriously one of my favorite correspondents on The Daily Show) So, I was so OMG excited at the end of season 3 with "it's a date" but I was seriously disappointed with the opening of season 4. I don't know if the show's a must-watch anymore. I mean, yay Jam--but did anyone else think Jim was totally uncomfortable in some of those moments? And... I don't know. I just wasn't impressed or enthralled.

That's all my TV watching because I don't know what comes on Fridays either.

Basically Tuesday and Wednesdays are my TV nights.

Quick rant: I hate television network websites. They're so full of ads and streaming video and other nonsense that they take forever to load. I think the only network channel website that didn't make my head want to explode was Fox--maybe because I guessed correctly at the show's url and didn't have to click from fox.com? But gosh, loading nbc.com and abc.com were nightmares! Oh well.

That's all!
